Renting a car in Puerto Rico?
I will be going to Puerto Rico in a little over a week and am trying to decide about a car rental. Not whether or not to do it because we will be renting a car (we have hotels in a few different places), but about what options to get with the rental. I currently have three reservations. One is for Thrifty, one is Budget, one is Enterprise. I am trying to decide which to cancel and what insurance/options I need. My insurance- I have full coverage- covers me in Puerto Rico. My husband’s insurance company- though he also has full coverage- does not cover Puerto Rico. He will be doing most of the driving (because of what I have read about the driving there I am afraid to drive there, esp. in San Juan).
So…
THRIFTY
Rental is at airport and we would have it from when we land until we leave. Total Base Rate for a compact car is $136.45 (5 days @ $27.29/day with Unlimited Miles)…this does not include their extra options of the Loss Damage Waiver ($15/day), Personal Protection Plan ($6/day), Supplemental Liability Ins ($8/day). I believe they also charge extra for additional drivers even if the additional driver is a spouse.
Thrifty requires the purchase of Loss Damage Waiver if you don’t show proof that your insurance will cover a rental car in PR. From their website: LDW is Optional If customer is paying with a credit card that extends coverage options to PUERTO RICO or renter presents verification of personal insurance coverages at rental counter. Personal insurance must be accompanied by a letter stating that the customers insurance policy will cover the rental car in Puerto Rico. All credit cards and insurances are subject to verification and acceptance at rental counter. If neither stipulation is met -
customer will be required to purchase LDW cost USD 14.95 – 16.95/day. Optional Third Party Liability cost USD 7.95/day If LDW is declined is MANDATORY for customer to purchase the Third Party Liability and would be responsible for the full value of the vehicle.
BUDGET
Same car class, same rental period is $234. Spouse is free as additional driver. Their add-on options are:
Loss Damage Waiver (LDW) Protects you if car is damaged or stolen. 19.95/day
Supplemental Liability Insurance (SLI) 10.95/day
Personal Accident and Effects (PAE) 4.95/day
ENTERPRISE
I have this rental set up as picking up the morning after we arrive because it would be $300 for the same rental period as the others but by picking it up the next morning instead, the rental is only $97 for an intermediate class car. Spouse is free. Their only add on option is the LDW for $20/day.
I think enterprise is the best option but my husband doesn’t want to deal with going back to the airport to get the car/cabs/etc.
My real question- is the LDW really worth the cost? Considering the driving style there? And if you have rented a car at SJU, what was a good company to go through? I have read about thrifty being out of cars despite reservations, etc..
